Secret Love Affair - Extramarital affair - Netflix

Extramarital affairs are relationships outside of marriage where an
illicit romantic or sexual relationship or a romantic friendship or
passionate attachment occurs. An extramarital affair that continues in
one form or another for years, even as one of the partners to that
affair passes through marriage, divorce and remarriage, could be
considered the primary relationship and the marriages secondary to it.
Several people claim the reason of extra marital affair as their
unsuccessful marriage and that the both spouses failed to please each
other. This may be serial polygamy or other forms of nonmonogamy. The
ability to pursue serial and clandestine extramarital affairs while
safeguarding other secrets and conflict of interest inherent in the
practice, requires skill in deception and duplicitous negotiation. Even
to hide one affair requires a degree of skill or malicious gaslighting.
All these behaviors are more usually called lying. Deception can be
defined as the “covert manipulation of perception to alter thoughts,
feelings, or beliefs”. The presence of deception may indicate the degree
to which the deceiver has breached fundamental conditions of fidelity,
of reciprocal vulnerability and of transparency. Sometimes these are
explicit or assumed pre-conditions of a committed intimate relationship.
Individuals having affairs with married men or women can be prosecuted
for adultery in some jurisdictions and can be sued by the jilted spouses
in others, or named as 'co-respondent' in divorce proceedings. As of
2009, eight U.S. states permitted such alienation of affections
lawsuits.
